I have two questions for users of MicroEMACS 3.10:

 1. Has anyone been able to get it running on a Sun 4 ? If so, could you
    please e-mail me the tricks involved? A colleague's recent attempt failed
    because of problems in:
      UNIX.C (CTRL redefined; missing ndir.h )
      BIND.C (undeclared initializer name(s) f and n in help(f,n) )

 2. Has anyone else had trouble with the filename completion on the PC
    version? (it disallows keyboard input when "getting" a file with a name
    that is similar to the one being edited --- this is using the MEIBM.EXE
    directly from the SIMTEL20 archives from LISTSERV@RPIECS).

I would be very happy to give more details of the problems if they seem
familiar to anyone. I would very much appreciate the advice/comments of
those who have overcome these obstacles. BTW, is this the only mechanism
for reporting bugs/problems with MicroEMACS 3.10?

SJO.
